    Any Define 7 XL owners there?

    I am thinking of "upgrading" to cheaper Define 7 XL from my Be Quiet 900D Pro, does anyone know how much space is there for top radiator (either from top ATX motherboard screws/standoff or from top of installed ATX motherboard to the top of the case)? Has anyone else gone the same route From Be...

    So, 19th March GDC Nvidia Key Note

    Yes. 8800 was 1st gen. CUDA 2nd gen CUDA was called 2xx series (9800 was rebranded to reflect on that) Volta is 11th gen

    So, 19th March GDC Nvidia Key Note

    I think 1180 / 1170 naming makes far more sense as its 11th generation of CUDA core based cards. As for OC UK increased prices due to high demand... yes it may seem opportunistic but if they lower all GPU prices and ignore current market then miners would buy them all off within minutes anyway.

    Availability of G.Skill F4-4200C19Q2-64GTZKK and F4-4200C19Q2-64GTZSW

    8 pack? Gibbo? Would really like to know. About to buy but want only the best (but quitest - no extra heat by boosting vccin, memory voltage etc. if i can avoid it). Cost isnt no.1 concern for me.

    Availability of G.Skill F4-4200C19Q2-64GTZKK and F4-4200C19Q2-64GTZSW

    Why are they specified to require 1.4 V at same speeds and same timings as Trident RGB 1.35V across the board then? This really confuses me. Is it just salesman talk or am I missing something?? Its like saying 5GHz 7700k at 1.35 V is better binned than the one that runs it at 1.3V. Not accusing...

    Anyone else regret going full water ?

    Some regrets here. Air was quieter at idle (e.g. GPU fans off, no pump for CPU etc.). Water would be quieter under load than air BUT there is coil whine from GPU which defeats the point ! And when taken cost and time into consideration it was good fun but hardly worth it. If I had GPU with less...

    i7 4790k or 7700k??

    Depends. Going for 4790k means you can avoid reinstalling windows and everything else. Its plug & play if you stay on the same chipset. I ve gone for 7700k mainly for latest nvme m.2 (4x) support and look of new boards otherwise i wouldnt bother. Performance wise there would be almost no...

    BeQuiet Dark Base Pro 900 Watercooled Build

    I like it. A lot! So much so that I am going to try and copy 90% of it as I already have the same case. Any more info you can share please do so. This is going to be my first attempt for water cooling system. Love how you positioned your reservoir reaching CPU block in a straight line without...

    ** 8 PACK BUNDLE: 6700K OC, AIO, ASUS HERO, 16GB 3000MHz & MORE FOR £499.99 (£270 SAVING) **

    Does anyone know if this bundle / motherboard allow 2x M.2 RAID 0 bootable (1 in m.2 slot and another on PCI-e adapter card)? Or do I need something much more expensive like z170 Deluxe. Kind of deal breaker for me.

    Gigabyte 1070 G1 Gaming only has 1 8pin Power connector?

    1080 founders ed. is rated 30 watts more and still only has 1 x 8 pin so on 1070 with less cores it really isn't necessary to have more

    Corsair Vengeance Pro interfering with cooler... should I remove heat spreaders?

    Are you sure it wont fit when installed properly? I had same concerns with my big air cooler but i can actually position front fan to any height there. And have venegance pro underneath just fine. Could it be the same with yours?

    Sound Blaster SBX vs Asus SupremeFX Virtual Surround

    Do You get any interference? I tried downgrading from ZxR to on-board gigabyte z97x g1-bk creative chip but headphones are not silent when nothing is playing. There is a bit of noise that I can hear on Phidelio x1. Was similar with ZxR if closer to PSU but having it in between CPU & GPU was much...

    ** NVIDIA GTX 1070: WANNA PRE-ORDER?**

    Problem there is that NVidia can just launch 1060 at gtx 980 speed at £200. 1070 is 980Ti speed so 1060 being at around 980 speed on 120-130 tdp makes sense. They COULD release 1060 at £200 - £250 to counter 480 while keeping 1070 at current prices.

    GTX 1070 - any takers?

    Wasn't it always like that? Even the most recent gen. when 980 launched at around £500 and 970 at £300 but two of them absolutely and completely destroy 980 for not much more £.
